Grand Theft Auto IV Walkthrough & Strategy Guide

You'll meet up with representatives from the prisoner's family, who will have a handful of diamonds in a handkerchief ready for exchange. Believe it or not, this deal was to go off honestly and without a hitch, with Niko agreeing to push the prisoner over in exchange for the diamonds being left on the ground. But as soon as this deal goes down, a familiar face shows up. It appears the diamonds were stolen from him, and he intends to kill both parties in order to get them back.

After that rather lengthy cutscene finishes up, an epic gun battle will take place on the highly-industrialized Charge Island. This battle will take place in parts, with wave after wave of enemy coming out. Bulgarin really wants those diamonds back, apparently. Thankfully, you'll have Packie helping you out (he'll have an automatic weapon and Molotov Cocktails at his disposal). So, begin working your way far forward into the fray. All enemies will be represented by red dots on your HUD, so there won't be any guessing here like there is on previous missions.

When you've cleared the initial wave of enemies, you can begin working your way into the catwalks overlooking this area (in fact, you've likely locked onto and killed a few enemies up there already). There are plenty of enemies up here that need to be dealt with. We've been alternating between an assault rifle and Uzi, and a shotgun depending on the proximity of the targeted enemy to you. We recommend you do the same as you traverse the catwalks, keeping in mind that shotgun tactics require a certain sense of urgency, because you'll need to be aggressive for it work.
